Children show only a hint of what they will become...
Children show only a hint of what they will become. Behind round cheeks and chubby fingers, perhaps there is a glint to the eye that might show that this one will be a prankster; perhaps there is the tiniest air of gravity that shows this one will be a leader. There is the smallest tilt to the nose or lift to the cheekbones that says this one will be beautiful. Tiny fingers are too small yet to show the capacity for deft work or great deeds; tiny lives are too new yet to show the scars of pain and growth. These fledgling people, what will they be? Doctors? Parents? Activists? Students?
